Making a simple path with the various tools is the easy part. Now the fun begins as you see the many ways to modify your path into a new shape.

To get started, there is the Bounding Box and the many controls it offers. But that’s now where the party ends. No, there are many more tools in our tool box that let use have even more fun.

Some of what you’ll see includes:

• Maximizing the shape-changing power of the Bounding Box
• Where did my Bounding Box go and how do I get it back
• Scaling with the Scale Tool
• The Reflect Tool…what is that
• What does this Shear Tool do
• What happens when I click this Copy button
• I can add perspective? That’s fun
• Is this Free Transform Tool really free?
• How do I constrain my modifications
• So much more
  

Now you’re in the big leagues as you use the many tools at your disposal to take a simple path you’ve created and make it exactly what you need for your project.
